The female identified herself as Kelly Hofmann, Moran's girlfriend of six months. The two had been drinking heavily and arguing inside the bar about Moran talking to another woman.

Hofmann was bleeding from her nose, and her right eye was "extremely swollen," the report said. A medical technician on the scene said that Hofmann's nose looked broken and noted to officers that her eye socket was potentially fractured. Hofmann was taken to Howard University Hospital.

In a statement released by Jim Moran's office, Hofmann called the police report "inaccurate" and denied that Moran caused her any physical harm.

"Pat and I were arguing, one of my high heels gave out, and I fell into the side of a trash can. On impact, I fractured my nose," Hofmann said. "I hope our privacy will be respected."

Ah, Ye Olde Broken High Heel Trick. Must be why he copped a plea.
